Abba Father |
Michael Card |
Until Your Son called out to me I was lost |
For years my cradle swung above the grave |
It is a wondrous thing to be adopted by a king |
To know a love that crowns and crucifies |
When Your Spirit moves I breath a prayer to You |
A cry not from my mouth but from the heart |
Because the Spirit came, I can use Your holy name |
The tender name a son could only use |
Abba Father, Abba Father |
Since that word became Your covenant name |
Abba Father I cry out to You |
Knowing You will hear my plea |
For You’ve adopted me |
Your Spirit of adoption came and filled my heart |
To smile upon the earth behind my eyes |
Urging me to give, teaching me to live |
To show the family likeness of Your love |
So Jesus has become for me a brother Lord |
The special son that died to set us free |
His cross for me has won the right to be Your son |
A blessed son You’d never cast aside |
Repeat Chorus |
